Juice extractor and feeding apparatus thereof

Abstract

A juice extractor and a feeding apparatus thereof are provided. The feeding apparatus includes a feed channel, a feed body connected to an upper port of the feed channel, and a cover plate assembly. The cover plate assembly includes a cover plate and an accommodating cavity with a large capacity. A shape of the cover plate matches an inner wall of the feed body and the cover plate is provided with a feed inlet, and the cover plate is rotatably provided on the inner wall of the feed body. The accommodating cavity with a large capacity is provided on a top surface of the cover plate, and has a sectional area greater than an area of the feed inlet, and is formed by an enclosure plate that surrounds the feed inlet. Upon inversion of the cover plate assembly, an opening of the accommodating cavity with a large capacity can be made to face the feed channel, and fruits and vegetables contained in the accommodating cavity with a large capacity are put in the feed channel. The feed inlet of the feed body is provided on the invertible cover plate assembly, so that not only diced fruits and vegetables are conveyed to the juice extractor, but also fruits and vegetables with large shapes fall into the feed channel by reverting the cover plate assembly without being diced. The juice extractor has a simple structure and can be conveniently used, so as to improve use safety.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]This invention relates to a juice extractor, and specifically relates to a juice extractor and a feeding apparatus thereof.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Currently, household juice extractors in the market are mainly divided into high speed centrifugal juice extractors and low speed raw juice extractors. According to national safety standards, a feed inlet of a conventional high speed centrifugal juice extractor needs to be higher than a cutter by at least 100 mm, and there are also corresponding requirements for sectional sizes: an average of a maximum sectional size and a minimum sectional size cannot exceed 65.5 mm, and the maximum sectional size cannot exceed 76 mm; however, a feed inlet of a low speed raw juice extractor needs to be higher than a feed screw by at least 100 mm, and a maximum sectional size should not exceed 45 mm, and a pusher placed in the feed inlet further needs to be provided.[0003]Based on the above, currently, neither the conventional high speed ...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a feeding apparatus that has a large capacity for fruits and vegetables of different shapes and sizes. The apparatus has a feed inlet on the cover plate, which allows small fruits and vegetables to directly fall into the feed body. It also has an accommodating cavity that can hold larger fruits and vegetables without the need for dicing. This saves time and energy and improves safety by preventing children from putting their hands into the feed body. The apparatus is convenient to use and has a simple structure.

Problems solved by technology

However, diameters of a lots of fruits, for example, apples, oranges, and pairs in daily life exceed 75 mm, and people make juice by using a juice extractor only after dicing such fruits into dices that meet a requirement, which is time consuming and energy consuming, and brings much inconvenience to people.

Therefore, current juice extractors have the problem that they cannot directly juice fruits and vegetables with large shapes.
